N.E.mation! is a competition for youths to express their notions on Total Defence through animation. Encouraged by the success of the five TD animation clips featured in the National Day Rally in 2006, Nexus has organised N.E.mation! since 2007 to provide a creative platform for students to express their personal ideas about Total Defence.

Students with no prior experience in animation are given training to equip themselves with skills to convert their stories into one-minute animation clips for public viewing and voting. The winners of the competition will then be determined by a combination of public voting and judging by a panel including industry professionals. The winning clips will be screened island-wide on free-to-air television and some previous entries were even honoured at international film awards.
